The SAT diagnostic test didn't go so well last night. =/ The essay I wrote was a lot worse than my last one (not nearly enough examples), and I was having a harder time with a lot of the questions. Oh well. It's not like it counts for anything, it's just to see how much you've progressed. And, apparently, I haven't progressed much at all.
Today is my parent's 30th anniversary. Crazy. My mom brought it up this morning, that we'd be going out to dinner and such, so I finally asked her about the digital camera. She told me to ask my dad about it, because I could probably get him to buy it for me (...which is true. He spoils me a lot more than my mom, mostly because he's guilty about not being around much when I was younger). When I told her it's only $80, she seemed impressed, and told me to mention to my dad how cheap it is and that if I use it like 4 times, that makes up for all the money I'd spend buying disposable cameras and getting the pictures developed. So, anyways, hopefully by tonight, I will have a new digital camera.
SAT class once again today. Joy. It's not that I don't like the class, it's just... if I had a choice between doing work and thinking for 3 hours or staying on the computer and possibly making icons and reading more Harry Potter, ...well I think it's pretty obvious what I'd choose. Plus, while it doesn't feel like it takes that long when I'm there, 3 hours is a pretty large chunk of the day.
-Hope this means that Melanie and Lindsay are finally back together. This breakup has dragged on way too long.
-Justin was being incredibly hypocritical about his mom's boyfriend. Also, why couldn't they have gotten someone who looked like the actor who played Tucker to play Brandon? He was far hotter than who they got (though still not hotter than Brian).
-I want Hunter to come back.
-Loved the beginning, with the people for Prop 14. Totally awesome.
-Poor, poor Brian. I can't wait till next week, finally. sigh.
-Poor, poor Drew Boyd. My heart totally lept when he admitted he was gay and kissed Emmett. I had this horrible sinking feeling that he would deny he was gay, but then he admitted it, so yay. I love them together.
Blah. Is it next Monday or whenever I get a chance to watch the next episode, yet?
Edit: They e-mailed me the scores of the diagnostic test I took yesterday. Somehow I managed a 12 on my essay (perfect score). That's insane. Of course, I was right on the rest: I did worse on the reading (640 compared with a 690 last time), and my overall score was worse (2010 compared to a 2050). And I did a lot worse on the grammar (63 instead of a 72) which is surprising, since I was doing really well on that in class. sigh. Oh well. At least I did well on the essay! And I did improve upon my math score by a little.
